Though the league has maintained they wouldn't be rescinding the policy of blacking out games within 90 miles of the stadium where it's being played if it isn't sold out within 72 hours of kickoff , the NFL announced a slight change that'll help out the fans who aren't able to see the game live.

The free "re-broadcasts" (as the league is calling them) will be accessible at midnight on the day of the game, and they will remain available for 72 hours.

"We understand that the economy is limiting some families and corporations from buying as many game tickets as they had previously," NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell in a release. "These free re-broadcasts on NFL.com will allow our fans that can't get to a blacked-out game an opportunity to see the entire game."

I still think the NFL would be smart to review and update its policy on blackouts, but make no mistake, this is a big concession in the eyes of league. Could it be a signal that change may be coming in the next few years?
